'65 Mustang, Jerico 4spd, 370 Cleveland w/ Weiand tunnel ram & 2 660s, raised port heads, etc. etc. Motor needs freshening, install clutch linkage, rear suspension work & I'd be ready to go!!

BTW Mike, I hope the Cavalier continues the Checkmate heritage (familiar logo, white body & blue hood!!!)
In the early days you either modified your own trans by grinding synchros teeth, or run a trans modified by Liberty Gears, or run a Doug Nash...
